Familiar faces from the local tourism industry packed into the conference room for the announcement to applaud the schoolÂs newest addition.ÂThis is the center of tour-ism in Northwest Florida,ÂŽ said Dan Rowe, executive director of Visit Panama City Beach. ÂFor us to be able to demonstrate that people can grow up in Bay County, go to school in Bay County and have careers in Bay County that go beyond just the entry-level service posi-tions. ... Having the Dedman (School) helps reinforce that fact.ÂŽBay County Chamber of Commerce CEO Carol Rob-erts said it was nice to see support for the countyÂs No. 1 industry „ tourism „ while Jorge Gonzalez, president and CEO of St. Joe Co., summed it up in fewer words. ÂIf thereÂs ever been a nobrainer, this is it,ÂŽ he said.Don Farr, director of the Dedman School of Hospitality, said he was glad to see this program finally come to the Panama City campus after many years of back and forth.

Rick Scott on the future of the public-private agency, which House Speaker Richard Corcoran, R-Land O Lakes, wants to eliminate.ÂThis difference of opin-ion is of such a critical nature that I no longer believe I can be effective in my position,ÂŽ Hart wrote to Enterprise Florida Vice Chairman Stan Connally.Hart, a former two-term state lawmaker from Tampa who took over Enterprise Florida in November after a long tenure running Career-Source Florida, did not elaborate on the differences in the letter.

Rick Scott wound up in front of a judge Monday, with a $700 million contract hanging in the balance.Attorneys for both sides spent hours arguing over whether the Florida Lottery broke the law when it approved a contract last fall with IGT Global Solutions to run lottery games. Circuit Judge Karen Gievers did not rule but prom-ised to make a decision quickly.Corcoran sued the stateÂs lottery secretary last month, arguing the contract is illegal because it exceeds the Florida LotteryÂs authorized budget. During the daylong hearing, top aides who work for the Florida House also testified the contract also was structured in a way to sidestep legislative oversight.Barry Richard, an outside attorney hired by the Florida Lottery, argued the contract is legal since it includes a provision that states it is con-tingent on money from the Florida Legislature. He also said Corcoran was Âmicro-managingÂŽ contracts „ a role that belongs to the governor and the executive branch. The contract increases from 2,000 to 5,500 the number of automated ticket machines capable of selling both scratch-off tickets and tickets for games such as Powerball.

Complainant advised that the resident stated, ÂIf you stick one more thing on my car, you and I are gonna have a problem. Complainant requested that the incident be documented so he might forward the information to his supervisors.ÂŽ The deputy obliged. Mean daughterA request for help with cooking led to a punchout, according to a recent Bay County SheriffÂs Office report.Deputies were told by a woman that Âshe asked her daughter for help cooking when (the daughter) began yelling and cussing at her. When (the mother) told (the daughter) she could not speak to her that way, (the daughter) struck her in the face, with a closed fist, breaking her nose.ÂŽThe woman reported her daughter kept hitting her and she attempted to record this on her cellphone, but when her daughter Ânoticed her trying to record her, she stole the cellphone, putting it in her pocket.ÂŽThe woman said her daughter then threatened her life, and with no way to call for help, the mother fled the house to get help. The daughter fled before deputies arrived, and a case was opened. Heated siblingsPolice responded to a call from a woman who said her Âbrother is out to get her,ÂŽ that he Âcalls her crazy,ÂŽ Âcalls places where her new boyfriend is attempting to find employment in an effort to keep her boyfriend from workingÂŽ and she wants her brother arrested.The officer didnÂt hear anything that sounded crim-inal, so the woman got her cellphone out and showed the officer a series of texts between her and her brother.The officer noted that, in the texts, the brother Âwas antagonisticÂŽ toward his sister and texted her a lot, and also saw one where the sister told her brother the reason she takes medication and needs counseling. The officer also noted a text where the sister offers the brother an anti-anxiety drug that is available by prescription only.The sister Âinsisted on Paris being arrested and I explained that she had not told me any-thing that I could criminally charge (him) for.ÂŽ The sister, the officer wrote, became agi-tated and decided she would call the Bay County SheriffÂs Office instead.THE BLOTTER By Deborah Wheeler315-4432 | @WaltonSunDeb dwheeler@waltonsun.comSANTA ROSA BEACH „ Walton CountyÂs Cus-tomary Use Committee called it a wrap last week and sent recommendations to county commissioners.The 11-member committeeÂs main recommendation was the rules of what is con-sidered acceptable behavior on the beaches of South Walton. The measure was intended as a compromise between those advocating customary public use of all beaches, and those Gulf-front property owners who feel the beaches are being abused by the public trespassing on their private Gulf-front property.Nine members voted for the compromise, with chair-man Tom McGee abstaining and Rosemary BeachÂs David Bailey dissenting.Committee member Beth Clay made the proposal to spell out what activities are acceptable on the beach, including recreational activ-ities such as swimming, surfing, fishing, sunbathing and building sand castles. The committee also agreed private land owners can use their property for anything; the restrictions are for the general public.In its recommendations to county commissioners, the committee urged the board to buy every bit of property it can for public use.Bailey made a motion to allow private entities owning dry-sand areas of the beach to use those areas. Commit-tee member Mike Huckabee seconded.ÂItÂs a balance,ÂŽ he said. ÂIt doesnÂt take anything away and shows respect for prop-erty owners. It provides some framework that is healthy. ItÂs harmless but necessary.ÂŽThe motion was approved.Walton CountyÂs Custom-ary Use Ordinance is slated to go into effect April 1.County commissioners will consider the recommen-dations at their March 14 meeting at the South Walton Annex.ÂI feel that the committee, with public input, had a full, thoughtful, intelligent exchange of ideas and put forth some sensible recommendations that can make Walton panel nalizes beach use recommendationsSee LOTTO, A5 See BEACH, A5 See PTSD, A4

Because of his experi-ences, he decided to start a local PTSD support group for veterans, their spouses and families, which will partner with other groups.ÂI started it out of necessity,ÂŽ said Lassiter, who also is a pastor at City Lights Church in Panama City. ÂIÂve had other pas-tors call me asking what to do about the veterans in their congregations. ÂHow do I minister to them? ŽMeeting times and places have yet to be hashed out, but one sure spot is his church, which has gotten off the ground in the past few months. Lassiter said City Lights already has helped several veterans and he also has been spreading the word throughout the military community.The group will partner with counselors and encourage veterans to come together and be a part of the community, said Lassiter.ÂOur goal is to help people become whole again,ÂŽ Lassiter said. Traumatic triggersPTSD happens when people are exposed to traumatic events that stick with the person, said Dale Heppe, a Gulf War veteran who served in the Air Force and now is a mental health counselor with A Peace of Mind Therapy in Panama City.It can manifest and be triggered after a veteran returns to civilian life, Heppe said.ÂThey may see fireworks, which triggers it,ÂŽ Heppe said. ÂI had (a veteran patient) down in Pier Park for New YearÂs Eve; the fireworks started that.ÂŽGetting those veterans to come out of the shadows can be a challenge because the military hasnÂt always acknowledged mental health issues, Lassiter said.ÂThey put a stigma on PTSD and have softened their stance in the past several years,ÂŽ he said. ÂIt was something that you wanted to hide and suffer in silence with.ÂŽLassiter expects to break that silence with a group that will start small and eventually grow into something bigger.Heppe said he supports the idea behind the group. Of the 35 patients he sees on average in a week, five or six tend to be veterans who sometimes donÂt like talking to people who havenÂt served. Other barriers they encounter include feeling like no one understands what theyÂre going through when they come home, Heppe said.ItÂs a good idea for vet-erans to help each other considering their high suicide rate and the VA being overwhelmed, Heppe said.

** A6 Tuesday, March 7, 2017 | The News Herald CHIPLEYBay man netted on meth, paraphernalia charges A Panama City man was arrested after he allegedly told police he was carrying methamphetamine that can be injected anally, according to law enforce-ment officials.Cody J. Evans, 24, is charged with possession of methamphetamine and drug paraphernalia and an outstanding warrant for possession of marijuana in Okaloosa County, accord-ing to the Washington County SheriffÂs Office (WCSO)A digital scale, glass pipe and two bags believed to contain methamphetamine were found during the traf-fic stop, WCSO reported. A needleless syringe and glass bottle of a liquid mixture also were found.ÂWhen Deputy Jarvis inquired as to the use of the syringe and liquid, Evans stated the liquid was methamphetamine that was used for injecting anally,ÂŽ WCSO reported. ÂThis has been found to be a common practice among meth users known as a ÂBooty Bump. ŽWCSO officials said they stopped Evans after he was spotted driving erratically on State 79 at Act Road, between Vernon and New Hope.CALLAWAYRoad to be closed for infrastructure improvementsBeginning today, South Berthe Avenue in Cal-laway will be closed from Boat Race Road to the Callaway Bay Apartment complex for infrastruc-ture improvements.Construction will con-sist of rehabilitating lift station CA-4 and replac-ing the adjacent manhole on South Berthe Avenue.Traffic will be detoured around the project to Boat Race Road, down Katherine Avenue to Wallace Road and East Park Road and through the Callaway Bay Apartment complexÂs parking lot. Residents from South Berthe Avenue to Wal-lace Road will have access from the intersection of Boat Race Road and South Berthe Avenue. Callaway Public Works officials said they expect the project to take about three weeks to complete. News Herald staff reportsAREA BRIEFS By Jim TurnerThe News Service of FloridaTALLAHASSEE „ Beach restoration is the latest area targeted for a slice of the money voters set aside a little more than two years ago for envi-ronmental preservation.Sen. Jack Latvala, R-Clearwater, and Rep. Kathleen Peters, R-Treasure Island, announced Friday they want to match Gov. Rick ScottÂs request to allocate $50 million a year for beach restoration. The money would come from the stateÂs Land Acquisition Trust Fund, which handles money from a 2014 constitutional amendment aimed at boosting land and water conservation.The proposal (SB 1590 and HB 1213) would require the Department of Environmental Protection to develop a new three-year plan for beach repairs. It also would refocus atten-tion on sand management at inlets and seek a revi-sion in a ranking system so the most serious erosion problems are prioritized.ÂUnfortunately, over half of FloridaÂs sandy beaches are eroding, and only half of these miles of eroded beaches are part of a beach project,ÂŽ Latvala, chairman of the Senate Appropria-tions Committee, said in a statement. ÂWe can point fingers or offer excuses, but the simple answer is not enough funding, and this bill addresses that.ÂŽIn recent years, the Legislature has provided $30 million a year to fight beach erosion. Scott in January requested $50 million for beach restora-tion as part of his proposed $83.5 billion budget for the upcoming fiscal year.ScottÂs proposal was in addition to $15.8 million he released last year through an emergency order and another $61 million that is in his proposed budget to help communities affected by hurricanes Hermine and Matthew.Lawmakers will consider ScottÂs budget proposals during the annual legislative session that starts today.Backers of the 2014 con-stitutional amendment, known as Amendment 1, said that while they support efforts to safeguard water and land resources, they would like to see $150 million a year go to land conservation.ÂThese bills reflect a piecemeal approach to environmental spending,ÂŽ said Eric Draper, executive director of Audubon Flor-ida. ÂAmendment 1 was an invitation to legislators to review and prioritize land and water conservation, Everglades restoration and coastal protection. But the big question of environmental infrastruc-ture spending suffers from short-term thinking.ÂŽThe trust fund dollars are raised through real-estate documen-tary-stamp taxes, known as Âdoc stamps.ÂŽ The voter-approved constitu-tional amendment directs 33 percent of the Âdoc stampÂŽ tax revenue into the trust fund for 20 years.More money sought for beach projectsThe Associated PressWASHINGTON „ The Supreme Court on Monday declined to give some inmates convicted of repeated violent crimes a chance to reduce their prison terms.The justices unanimously rejected a challenge to guidelines that boosted the sentence of a Florida man convicted of unlawful possession of a sawed-off shotgun.Travis Beckles received a 30-year sentence as a career offender because he had two prior felony drug convictions. Beckles said language in the sentencing guidelines defining what crimes make a defendant eligible for a longer prison term is so vague itÂs unconstitu-tional. He was relying on a high court ruling last year that struck down similar language in the Armed Career Criminal Act.Writing for the court, Justice Clarence Thomas declined to apply that ruling to language in the sentencing guidelines. He said the sentencing guidelines canÂt be chal-lenged for being too vague since they only offer a guide to how courts can impose sentences within an acceptable range.A ruling in favor of Beckles would have allowed up to 6,000 fed-eral inmates sentenced under the guidelines to seek a reduction, according to the National Association of Federal Defenders, a defense attorney group.Only seven justices heard the case after Jus-tice Elena Kagan recused herself from taking part. A federal appeals court alsohad ruled against Beckles challenge.Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Ruth Bader Ginsburg agreed with the outcome, but wrote sepa-rately to say the majority went too far in saying the sentencing guidelines never can be challenged for being too vague. Jus-tice Anthony Kennedy also wrote separately to say some sentencing rules might be challenged under the Constitution for being too arbitrary.Justices decline to extend ruling on repeat o endersBait hangs from a line at the M.B. Miller County Pier in Panama City Beach. A legislative proposal would require the Department of Environmental Protection to develop a new three-year plan for beach repairs.

** The News Herald | Tuesday, March 7, 2017 A7addressing the House Rules & Policy Committee on Monday. The committee approved a bill (HB 7005) to abolish Enterprise Florida and another bill (HB 9) to reform the tourism-marketer Visit Florida.The Enterprise Florida Executive Committee has scheduled a conference call for today to discuss how to proceed.The governorÂs office, which has been at odds with Corcoran over the proposals for both Enter-prise Florida and Visit Florida, didnÂt expect the resignation to alter the focus of Enterprise Florida. Scott wants lawmakers to provide $85 million to the agency for business-recruitment incentives during the upcoming fiscal year.ÂIt is odd that Chris Hart never shared any differences of opinion or vision with the gov-ernor until we first read that he had them in his resignation letter,ÂŽ Scott spokeswoman Jackie Schutz said in a statement. ÂThe future of EFI and its role in creating more jobs in Florida as we compete with other states is more important than one personÂs sudden change of opinion or position, no matter how surprising.ÂŽScott had praised Hart in November when Enterprise Flor-ida made the hire.ÂChris understands the incredible impact a job can have on a family and the need for EFI to make job creation the number one priority,ÂŽ Scott said in a release. ÂAs president and CEO, I know Chris will imme-diately get to work to return EFI back to its core mission of creating jobs for our families.ÂŽHartÂs decision came hours before the Rules & Policy Committee voted 15-3 to back the measure that would abolish Enterprise Florida and a number of other agencies. Corcoran has described such programs as Âcorporate welfareÂŽ and has fought funding for them.The committee also voted 15-2 to approve the measure to overhaul Visit Florida.That measure would require Visit Florida to post all contracts online; freeze agency employees benefits at current levels and prohibit bonuses; remove public-records exemptions from marketing and research projects; and require approval from the gov-ernor for all out-of-state and international travel. The changes also would require the Senate to confirm the governorÂs appointment of the agencyÂs president and allow the Joint Legisla-tive Budget Commission, House speaker or Senate president to reject contracts worth more than $750,000.Scott has asked for $76 million for Visit Florida in the upcoming budget.In voting against the Visit Florida bill, Rep. David Richardson, D-Miami Beach, called the changes an ÂoverreachÂŽ and Âarbitrary.ÂŽ He noted Visit Florida has worked internally on measures to become more transparent, due in part to a controversial $1 million Visit Florida contract with Miami hip-hop artist Armando Christian Perez, better known as Pitbull, and ongoing sponsorship deals with Londonbased Fulham Football Club and an IMSA racing team.Both bills are now ready to be voted on by the entire House during the annual legislative session that starts Tuesday. However, neither bill has a Senate version, and senators have expressed support for both agencies.Hart was hired Nov. 30, replacing Bill John-son who left in June following the LegislatureÂs rejection of a Scott request for $250 million in economicincentive money for the public-private organization. LEADERContinued from A1The bill, filed by Sen. Kathleen Passidomo, R-Naples, states Âheroin, opiate, illegal drug, and accidental overdoses are a crisis and stress the financial, health care, and public safety resources because there exist no central databases that can quickly help address the problem. Quick data collection will allow all agencies to focus on spe-cific age groups, areas, criminal behavior, and needed public education and prevention with the maximum utilization of resources.ÂŽBill Dozier, chairman of the Bay County Commis-sion, has drafted a letter that expresses his concerns about the bill in a letter to state Sen. George Gainer. The full County Commission will vote on the matter today.ÂWhile Bay County fully supports any and all efforts to collect data and fight the growing number of overdoses, particularly opiates, my concerns are with the penalties imposed on health-care workers and first responders who may not report due to error or omission,ÂŽ Dozier writes in his letter to Gainer. ÂFirst responders and emergency room personnel have been on the front lines of this grow-ing epidemic for years and work to save the lives of persons who have overdosed every day. ... You will find no group of pro-fessionals more dedicated to attacking this epidemic than those working for Bay County EMS and our local hospitals.ÂŽBowen said any database that is established could not violate federal health care privacy laws such as the Health Insur-ance Portability and Accountability Act, also known as HIPAA.ÂItÂs not unreasonable for law enforcement to want to know the size of the problem, what kind of trends we are seeing,ÂŽ Bowen said. ÂAre there certain times of year when it becomes much bigger than it is other times of the year? They can run analytics and we can provide them data that doesnÂt violate HIPAA.ÂŽThe bill was filed Feb. 9 and referred to the Senate committee on health policy, criminal justice and rules.The bill states information that would be sent to the database would include the date of the overdose; the approx-imate age of the person receiving attention or treatment; the suspected kind and quantity of controlled substances involved in the overdose; and the approximate address of where the person was picked up, where the overdose took place or where the person resides.The bill states the sheriff or chief law offi-cer in each county would share the date with health care profession-als and the county health department.Bay County Sheriff Tommy Ford said he has a lot of questions about the bill and how the database would work. ÂI support us exploring the collection of data in order to more efficiently address the crisisÂŽ of overdoses, he said. ÂThe devil is in the details. I have lot of questions about the bill. I certainly do not agree with criminal penalties for health-care professionals.ÂŽ PROPOSALContinued from A1 BILLCRAMERGM.COM-PANAMACITY 850-250-5489€877-361-18152251West23rdSt. PanamaCity,FL BillCramerGM.com SelectNewChevrolets*Savingsafterallapplicablerebates(mustqualifyforcertainrebates;seedealerfordetails),&dealerdiscounts;plusdealeradd-ons& accessories.Appliestoin-stockunitsonly.Packagediscountsarereflectedonwindowsticker.Plustax,title,license,dealeradds,$50 electronicfilingfee,and$595dealerprepfee.Offerends3/13/17.Dealernotresponsiblefortypographicalerrors.20%Off 2017Spark2017Sonic2017ImpalaNowThroughMarch13th 1164070 PROPELMARKETING.COM CALLTODAY!850-747-5004Amplifyyourmessageandextendyourreach.

Letters may be edited for clarity and brevity. Guest columns of up to 600 words may be submitted as well. Write: Letters to the editor, The News Herald, 501 W. 11th St., Panama City, FL 32401 Email: pcnhletters@pcnh.com LETTERS TO THE EDITOR SQUALL LINE ANOTHER VIEW Tim Thompson | Publisher Will Glover | Managing Editor Mike Cazalas | Editor PANAMA CITY VIEWPOINTSMoney and ambition always play leading roles when the Florida Legislature is meeting. And the 2017 session, which is set to open today, promises to be scrappier than usual „ with skirmishes breaking out even as the ceremonial opening-day speeches and traditional displays of unity still ring in the air. Much of the posturing stems from politicians plotting their next moves. In fact, state political junkies are already gleefully mapping the ever-growing fracture lines between Gov. Rick Scott (said to be eyeing the Senate seat currently occupied by Bill Nelson) and lawmakers „ in particular, House Speaker Richard Corcoran, a fire-breathing reformer and rumored contender to replace Scott as governor. ItÂs all quite fascinating to inveterate government gossip hounds. And deeply disrespectful to the voters in cities like Panama City who sent lawmakers to Tallahassee to craft sensible policies and spend their tax dollars wisely, not plot intra-governmental warfare in pursuit of their own ambitions. The Florida Constitution gives lawmakers only one firm task during most sessions: To pass a balanced budget. This year, that will be tough. Despite a state economy thatÂs rebounding steadily (albeit slowly), state forecasters are projecting a tiny budget surplus about $7 million in an $83 billion-plus spending plan. And lawmakers should be keeping in mind the projections showing a potential $1.3 billion shortfall for the budget year after that, putting even more pressure on lawmakers to act sensibly this year. There are big, and competing, spending priorities to manage. Scott wants $626 million in tax and fee cuts, the biggest of which „ a $454 million cut in sales tax on commercial leases „ probably is not in the cards this year, especially since Scott also calls for more money for law enforcement and prison guards, K-12 education and services for people with mental illness and disabilities. His most contentious request: $85 million in economic incentives for business and $76 million to promote tourism. To back that demand, ScottÂs been traveling around the state (including a stop in Bay County) to put individual lawmakers on blast. That tactic has already drawn return fire from Corcoran, who opposes economic incentives. CorcoranÂs push for austerity could also put him on a collision course with Senate President Joe Negron, who wants to devote another $1 billion to FloridaÂs higher-education system and launch a $2.4 billion cleanup of troubled South Florida waterways, including Lake Okeechobee. There are some promising solutions „ if legislators can stop fighting long enough to take advantage of them. A constitutionally mandated governmental efficiency task force recommended changes that could produce $12 billion in savings. And Negron has long backed the elimination of an insurance-industry credit that could save the state $300 million annually. But to get to the right place, lawmakers will have to work together and with Scott. ThereÂs also a worst-case scenario: A repeat of 2015Âs shameful budget deadlock, which forced lawmakers to haggle over a spending bill for months after they were scheduled to wrap up. Floridians deserve a legislative session focused on the needs of the state, not derailed by a clash of political titans.Focus on stateÂs needsOur water must be protected First let me thank you for that excellent editorial on ÂFree Press is Vital to Liberty.ÂŽ Thank God President Trump does not control the news media so we can get the truth. A recent article in the Washington Post portrayed President Trump as a master con artist, so was Adolph Hitler a master con artist. I donÂt mean to imply that the President would turn out to be another Hitler, heaven forbid, but these historical parallels are there causing you to be apprehensive about Mr. Trump. He nominated Scott Pruit to be the Administrator of The Environmental Protection Agency, an agency he has sued EPA numerous times over oil regulations. Further he has nominated Rex Tillerson of Exxon to be Secretary of State because of his close ties with the Russian President and possibly of his many investments in Russia. That may be why he does not want you to see his tax returns. Over and above this he is trying to get Neil Gorsuch to on the Supreme Court who is a far right attorney. That way when his legislation goes to the court, he is assured of a win; NeilÂs mother is Ann Gorsuch, was the administrator of EPA under Ronald Reagan. After two years Reagan fired her since she was disemboweling the regulatory functions of the EPA and Congress had enough. Neil was a teenager at the time. DonÂt get me wrong, Neil is a very talented attorney but it is environmental regulations for clean water, clean air and a healthy beach and seafood that we need here at Panama City. That is our greatest resource and why Panama City Beach is rated #5 out of fifty (50) beaches in the U.S.Col. J. D. Koutsandreas, Panama CityThere are cities in America who do put a mor-atorium or limit on growth. Why not here?Why are kids attending large universities taught to block free speech of those with whom they disagree? ThereÂs something very wrong about that.Elton John hasnÂt pro-duced any good music since 8-Tracks went away is why America is not playing his music.We had two lousy candidates for President. Fortunately, we picked the lesser of two evils. At least Trump is American, unlike Obama.This year for Lent IÂm giving up hanging out with all the people who gave up drinking for Lent.Turns out company doesnÂt love misery.If I have to brown it, boil it or bake it before I can put it in my crock pot I am not making it. Defeats the pur-pose of a slow cooker!Nice to see some college kids have made the trip to PCB. Have fun but play safe. ÂThe Florida Constitution gives lawmakers only one rm task during most sessions: To pass a balanced budget. This year, that will be tough.ÂŽFlorida lawmakers convene this week in Tallahassee, an event traditionally kicked off by a barrage of wacko gun legislation. This year, some of it actually stands a chance of passing. The worst by far is a bill filed in both the House and Senate that would eliminate all Âgun-freeÂŽ zones in the state. If passed, persons with concealed-weapons permits would be able to carry firearms to pro sports events, bars, police stations, K-12 public schools, public colleges and universities, courthouses, polling places, government meetings, seaports and airport passenger terminals. To single out just one of the many pathways to random bloodshed, Republican lawmakers seem determined to make handguns accessible wherever mass quantities of alcohol are being consumed. Polls show widespread opposition to abolishing gun-free zones, a view shared by college officials, business leaders and many in law enforcement. But the politicians pushing for more firearms in public are serving a higher master: the NRA. Its unabashed darling in the Senate is mild-mannered Dennis Baxley, who is, fittingly, an undertaker by trade. On the House side, Speaker Richard Corcoran insists criminals and mass shooters are attracted to gun-free zones because they know civilians there wonÂt be armed. Lawmakers say the Pulse nightclub massacre in Orlando and the shooting at the Fort Lauderdale airport might have been prevented if the victims had been carrying weapons. This Charles Bronson fantasy is avidly promoted by the NRA. It relies on the false premise that anyone with a concealed-weapons permit is both calm enough and skilled enough to fire a handgun in crowded mayhem and actually hit the right person. The airport mass shooting, committed by an unhinged legal gun owner, took less than 90 seconds. Even if any of them had brought a weapon, it would have been packed inside their checked luggage, as was the shooterÂs semiautomatic Walther. The killing was over before many of the bags landed on the carousel. It took an army of cops to bring down the Pulse shooter (another licensed gun owner), yet weÂre supposed to believe he could have been taken out by a single armed club patron, pointing a handgun in dimly lit clamor at a fast-moving assailant firing an assault rifle. NRA-backed lawmakers won key committee assignments in the new Legislature, which means that several of this sessionÂs bad gun laws have a better-thanusual chance of passing. One such bill, opposed by prosecutors, makes it easier for shooters to claim a Stand Your Ground defense. It resurfaces now, as a retired Tampa police captain is on trial for fatally shooting a man during a confrontation in a movie theater. The victim was armed with a bag of popcorn and a cell phone. Even if the stateÂs gunfree zones are abolished, companies and private business owners canÂt legally be required to allow customers with weapons on their property. Never fear „ one GOP senator has a devious compliance tactic. Sen. Greg Steube of Bradenton, a favorite pet of the NRA, has filed a bill aimed to punish the many retailers, restaurants, nightclubs, theme parks, movie theaters and other businesses that prohibit firearms. Among the big names potentially affected would be Disney, Costco and Whole Foods. SteubeÂs measure would allow anyone holding a concealed-weapons permit to sue a gun-banning establishment if he or she gets shot, or otherwise assaulted, on the premises. The legal claim would be that they could have protected themselves had they been armed. ItÂs a tort lawyerÂs dream. That scenario fits Will Ferrell better than Charles Bronson, but itÂs closer to reality than the NRA can ever admit.

** By Ana SwansonThe Washington PostThe Snuggie „ the fluffy blanket with sleeves that is designed not to slip off no matter how aggressively you reach for the potato chips„ received a big win recently.A U.S. trade court ruled the product, a break-away star of TV shopping that has appeared on ÂLate Night With Jimmy Fallon,ÂŽ ÂThe Today ShowÂŽ and ÂOprah,ÂŽ should be classified as a blanket, rather than clothing, as government lawyers had been trying to claim.The case might seem strange „ why does the government care about classifying Snuggies anyway? But due to variations in tariffs „ the taxes governments place on imports to make foreign products more expensive, and help make domestic manufacturers more competitive „ the deci-sion is likely to end up costing the government big and saving the company a bundle. Every item that moves across the border has a set tariff. That includes the Snuggie, which is made in China.These tariffs have been hammered out through decades of negotiation between governments and industry lobbies, and often vary for each product category. In the United States, the tariff on imported blankets is 8.5 percent, whereas the tariff on imported Âpullover apparelÂŽ is significantly higher at 14.9 percent. That was enough to convince the Hawthorne, New York-based Allstar Marketing Group, which makes the Snuggie, to take the U.S. government to the United States Court of International Trade for categorizing the Snuggie as apparel, similar to a Âpriestly garment.ÂŽ The judge sided with Snuggie last month, saying the product was a blanket, not clothing, in part because of its lack of closures in the back. Allstar Marketing declined to comment on the case.The Snuggie case and others like it show how companies might go to great lengths to avoid the barriers governments impose on imported products. Bryan Riley, a senior policy analyst and advocate for free trade at the Heritage Founda-tion, said trade barriers make Americans pay more for imported goods, and they encour-age companies to invest in lobbying the government for special protection from compe-tition. Sometimes, the potential savings from avoiding a tariff can encourage companies to redesign their products to get around them „ a practice that is known as Âtariff engineering.ÂŽÂCompanies will employ tariff engineers to make sure products come in at a lower tariff rate, and you canÂt tell me there is not a better use for their talent,ÂŽ Riley said. ÂIt would be a lot easier if compa-nies could just focus on producing what Amer-ican consumers want, instead of trying to design products to get around the most harm-ful aspects of U.S. trade barriers.ÂŽFor example, AmericaÂs high tariffs on sugar have encouraged companies to shift to importing cake mixes and other sugar-rich products instead, said Doug Irwin, an econo-mist at Dartmouth. And when the U.S. imposed a tariff on motorcycles with 700-cc engines and larger in the early 1980s in a bid to protect motorcycle company Harley-Davidson, Japanese competitors simply started making a 699-cc version instead, Irwin said.Halloween costumes walk a similarly thin line, as NPRÂs Planet Money has reported. By using a Velcro closure instead of a zipper or button, some products are more likely to be counted as Âfestive articlesÂŽ than clothing, which is subject to much higher tariffs.ÂFirms are very clever at doing this,ÂŽ Irwin said. ÂIf you put a tariff on a particular product category, they can with a small adjustment get classified as a different product and get around the tariff.ÂŽFriedman said he has tracked the practice of tariff engineering as far back as 1882, when the Supreme Court ruled on a case involving a sugar importer. Duties on sugar were based on the productÂs color, so an enterprising company colored its sugar with molasses to get around the tax.The Supreme Court ruled the company had the right to do so, as long as it was properly disclosing to customs what its merchandise was and not trying to deceive border agents, Friedman said.

The H7 avian influenza can be deadly to chickens and turkeys.ÂBird fluÂŽ is a catchall phrase for a variety of influenza viruses that spread among poultry. They can be very contagious and deadly among birds, but rarely spread to humans. That said, deadly human flu pandemics have been sparked by viruses that first emerged in birds, and health officials closely track whatÂs killing poultry.Flu can spread from birds to humans through the air, or when people touch a bird or an infected surface and then touch their eye, nose or mouth.The affected Tennessee breeder supplies the food company Tyson Foods Inc. The com-pany said Monday that it doesnÂt expect its chicken business to be disrupted, but the outbreak sent jitters through Wall Street.Shares of Tyson, based in Springdale, Arkansas, fell and the news dragged down shares of other companies in the sectors as well.ÂWeÂre responding aggressively, and are working with state and federal officials to contain the virus,ÂŽ Tyson said in a company release.The company said it already tests all of its flocks for the virus before they leave farms Âout of an abundance of cau-tion.ÂŽ Results are known before the birds are pro-cessed, the company said, and animals are not used if bird flu is detected.Bird u found at chicken supplier BUSINESS PANAMA CITYCarmike Theaters to become AMC Classic TheatresCarmike Theaters in Panama City soon will be converted into AMC Classic Theatres.AMC Theatres purchased Carmike Theaters in late 2016, and by April, the con-version of the Panama City theaters will be complete.The Panama City 10 The-atre at 4049 W. 23rd St. will be renamed AMC Clas-sic Panama City 10, and the Panama City 4 Theatre will be renamed AMC Classic Panama City Mall 4.

** A10 Tuesday, March 7, 2017 | The News HeraldBy Justin LynchThe Associated PressKAMPALA, Uganda „ South SudanÂs government is blocking desperately needed food aid and restricting United Nations peacekeepers, according to a confidential report by the U.N. secretary-general and a statement by a top U.N. official.Together, the report and statement show the daunt-ing conditions faced by the international community as it tries to combat a catas-trophe in the troubled East African nation.The internal report from U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres to members of the Security Council obtained by the Associated Press singles out South SudanÂs government for Âthe destruction of all the social fabric in all parts of the countryÂŽ and lists ÂoutrageousÂŽ examples of belligerence by South SudanÂs security forces. South Sudan is impeding humanitarian assistance, said the U.N. humanitar-ian chief, Stephen OÂBrien, after a two-day visit to the country over the weekend.ÂPeople have been displaced, brutalized and raped. They have been attacked when they sought out assistance. This must stop, and it must stop now,ÂŽ OÂBrien said in a statement.South Sudan blocks desperately needed aid PORTSMOUTH, VA. Coast GuardÂs Twitter hackedA U.S. Coast Guard spokes-man says an invitation to meet for sex showed up on the mid-Atlantic regionÂs Twitter account after it was hacked.Coast Guard spokesman Nate Littlejohn said that the account was compromised Monday morning. He says the profile photo and bio were changed to include an invita-tion to meet for sex, and that an image of a scantily clad woman was tweeted from the account.Littlejohn says officials were immediately alerted by a member of the news media and regained control of the account in five to 10 minutes. PARIS Conservatives fret as Fillon ” ounders For FranceÂs conservatives, this yearÂs presidential election should have been effortless.Instead, the Republicans party „ once all but certain to take back the Elysee Palace in 2017 „ is in disarray over the corruption-tainted cam-paign of its candidate Francois Fillon. Riven by dissent as Fillon tenaciously clings to his bid, the conservatives are watching their presidential hopes sink by the day.Far-right nationalists, meanwhile, are gearing up for what they hope is their Donald Trump moment, in which National Front leader Marine Le Pen proves the pollsters wrong and harnesses the anti-immigration, antiestablishment sentiment percolating around Europe to capture a presidential victory.BERLIN Merkel rejects Nazi remarks German Chancellor Angela Merkel on Monday rejected remarks by TurkeyÂs president accusing officials of ÂNazi practices,ÂŽ days after a local authority in Germany prevented a Turkish minister from addressing a rally.ÂOne cannot seriously comment on such misplaced statements,ÂŽ Merkel said at an event in Berlin, the dpa news agency reported.Diplomatic tensions have been rising in recent days amid Turkish plans to have government ministers address rallies in Germany and the Netherlands in sup-port of a national referendum on constitutional reform that would give Erdogan more powers.LUSAKA, ZAMBIA 8 die in stampede during food handoutsZambian police say eight people have died and 28 have been injured in a stampede during food handouts at a youth center in the capital, Lusaka.Police spokeswoman Esther Katongo said the stampede happened Monday when people forced their way into the Olympic Youth Development Centre, where the distribution of food handouts was scheduled to take place. Katongo said the dead include six women, one man and one boy. She said thousands of people had been invited to the event, which was organized by a church group. An investiga-tion is underway.By Edith LedererThe Associated Press UNITED NATIONS „ North Korea warned Monday that U.S.-South Korean military exercises, which it called Âthe most undisguised nuclear war maneuvers,ÂŽ are driving the Korean Peninsula and northeast Asia toward Ânuclear disaster.ÂŽ The North Korean ambassador to the United Nations, Ja Song Nam, said in a letter to the U.N. Security Council that the U.S. is using nuclear-propelled aircraft carriers, nuclear submarines, nuclear strategic bombers and stealth fighters in the joint exercises that began Wednesday. ÂIt may go over to an actual war,ÂŽ Ja warned of the military drills, Âand, consequently, the situation on the Korean Pen-insula is again inching to the brink of a nuclear war.ÂŽThe letter was sent a few hours after North Korea fired four banned ballistic missiles, in apparent reaction to the U.S.-South Korean exercises. Three of them landed in waters that Japan claims as its exclusive economic zone, South Korean and Japanese officials said.North Korea warns about USSouth Korea exercisesSouth Korea army soldiers install a tent Monday in Yeoncheon, South Korea, near the border with North Korea.

A neighbor found the twin sisters the next morning. [SUSAN WILLIAMS VIA THE ASSOCIATED PRESS] NATION & WORLD NEW BALTIMORE, OHIOEAST PROVIDENCE, RHODE ISLAND DATELINESBy Alicia A. Caldwell and Jill ColvinThe Associated PressWASHINGTON „ With-out fanfare, President Donald Trump signed a scaled-back version of his controversial ban on many foreign travel-ers Monday, hoping to avoid a new round of lawsuits and outrage while fulfilling a central campaign promise. His order still bars new visas for people from six Muslim-majority countries and temporarily shuts down AmericaÂs refugee program.The revised order, signed with none of the flourish of his first version, eliminates some of the most contentious aspects in an effort to surmount the court chal-lenges that are sure to come. TrumpÂs first order, issued just a week after his inaugu-ration, was halted by federal courts.The new one leaves Iraq off the list of banned countries „ at the urging of U.S. mili-tary and diplomatic leaders „ but still affects would-be visitors and immigrants from Iran, Syria, Somalia, Sudan, Yemen and Libya. It also makes clear that current visa holders will not be impacted, and it removes language that would give priority to religious minorities „ a pro-vision some interpreted as a way to help Christians get into the U.S. while excluding Muslims.The order wonÂt take effect until March 16 despite earlier warnings from Trump and his aides that any delay would put national security at risk by allowing the entry of Âbad ÂdudesÂÂŽ who want to harm the country.The changes underscore the very different position the president finds himself in.Five weeks ago, Trump dropped the first order with a bang, catching lawmakers and members of his adminis-tration by surprise. He signed the order in a high-profile ceremony at the PentagonÂs Hall of Heroes as Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis stood by.This time around, the president skipped the usual public ceremony altogether. Instead, the administration chose to have Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and Attorney Gen-eral Jeff Sessions serve as the public faces of the rollout at a brief press announcement.ÂI think today was about the implementation of it,ÂŽ said Press Secretary Sean Spicer „ at a briefing off camera.Legal experts say the new order addresses some of the constitutional concerns raised by a federal appeals court about the initial ban but leaves room for more legal challenges.ÂItÂs much clearer about how it doesnÂt apply to groups of immigrants with more clearly established constitutional rights,ÂŽ said University of Texas law professor Stephen Vladeck. ÂThatÂs a really important step.ÂŽTrump officials say the goal hasnÂt changed: keeping would-be terrorists out of the United States while the government reviews vetting systems for refugees and visa applicants from certain parts of the world.Tillerson said, ÂIt is the presidentÂs solemn duty to protect the American people, and with this order Presi-dent Trump is exercising his rightful authority to keep our people safe.ÂŽTrump signs new order without fanfareSecretary of State Rex Tillerson makes a statement on issues related to visas and travel Monday at the U.S. Customs and Border Protection of“ ce in Washington.

** The News Herald | Tuesday, March 7, 2017 A11By Tony CapaccioBloombergThe Pentagon office that reviews information to deter-mine whether itÂs classified has blocked publication of potentially embarrassing data on cost overruns for the first two vessels bought under the NavyÂs primary Littoral Combat Ship (LCS) contracts, according to a new congres-sional audit.In a report examining Navy shipbuilding contracts, the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) deleted overrun information on two of the Littoral Combat Ships launched in late 2014 „ the USS Milwaukee built by Lockheed Martin and the USS Jackson built by Austal Ltd. „ at the request of the Defense Office of Prepublication and Security Review.The GAO said the Defense Department Âdeemed the cost growthÂŽ on both vessels Âto be sensitive but unclassified information, which is excluded from this public report. However, the percent differenceÂŽ in cost for each ship Âwas above target cost.ÂŽ Other types of ships were listed with specific data on cost increases that ranged from 4 percent to 45 percent.ÂThis seems to be an overly broad reading of competi-tion-sensitive information,ÂŽ said Mandy Smithberger, a director for the Project On Government OversightÂs military reform initiative. ÂTaxpayers are footing the bill for these overruns. They deserve to know the costs.ÂŽThe Littoral Combat Ship has been controversial, with two defense secretaries under President Barack Obama questioning whether the light ship intended for shallow coastal waters could survive in combat and cutting back the numbers planned. While President Donald Trump and his defense secretary, James Mattis, havenÂt taken a stand on the ship, it could be one path toward TrumpÂs pledge to rapidly expand the NavyÂs fleet to 350 vessels from about 272 today.The two vessels are the first in a block of 10 that each con-tractor is building at regular intervals at what the Navy says are stable prices. The Navy plans to ask this year for authorization to build the final 12 of 40 ships as well as equipment for missions. Those final ships are described as ÂfrigatesÂŽ that will be better armed than the existing designs.The LCS deletions were mentioned in a table that listed cost growth.Pentagon blocks cost overrun from GAO reportThe nationÂs “ rst Littoral Combat Ship, Freedom (LCS 1), prepares to make a side launch during her christening in 2006 in Wisconsin. Twenty-six ships of whatÂs now a 28-vessel program of original Littoral Combat Ships are delivered or on contract. [LOCKHEED MARTIN/U.S. NAVY NEWS FILE PHOTO VIA MCT] By Dennis McLellanLos Angeles TimesRobert Osborne, who displayed an encyclopedic knowledge „ and love „ of films and film history as the primary host of Turner Classic Movies, has died in New York, the network said Monday. He was 84.Osborne was a former longtime columnist for the Hollywood Reporter and the author of the official history of the Academy Awards. The genial, silver-haired and dapper Osborne was a bonafide movie connois-seur, who displayed his wide knowledge of films on TCM since the 24-hour commer-cial-free cable networkÂs launch in 1994.ÂHi, IÂm Robert Osborne,ÂŽ he wouldcordially greet viewers from a stylish living room set and quickly begin serving up fascinating infor-mation and insider trivia about the movie that was about to be shown.At the end of each film, the man Washington Post TV critic Tom Shales dubbed Âan avatar of eruditionÂŽ offered his closing remarks.With an extensive library of films spanning the decades, Osborne was clearly in his element.ÂFor anyone who loves movies like I do, Turner Clas-sic Movies will be like falling into paradise,ÂŽ he told the Hollywood Reporter in 1994 when he was named host of TCM.Osborne never lost his enthusiasm for either the classics or the more obscure movies that aired on the cable channel.ÂI do love it,ÂŽ he told the Washington Post in 2010, Âand the feedback we get from viewers is part of it, from young and old „ viewers who say they never knew this or that film existed, or talk about what they had missed until they discovered TCM.ÂŽÂWe show movies from all different eras, not just Âold movies, but IÂve often quoted something that Lauren Bacall said years ago: ÂIf youÂve never seen ÂBrief Encounter,ÂŽ then itÂs not an old movie to you. ŽA resident of New York City since the late 1980s, he generally would fly to Atlanta once a month to shoot a series of opening and closing segments for upcoming films, and viewers looked forward to hearing his comments on each movie.ÂYou feel like itÂs not just a guy up there reading copy that people prepared for him to read,ÂŽ film critic and his-torian Richard Schickel told the Post in 2005. ÂThatÂs a good quality and increasingly rare in the television climate of our times. HeÂs something a lot more than just a talking head.ÂŽOsborne had more than his share of movie star fans in Hollywood. In addition to hosting movies seven evenings a week, Osborne hosted special one-on-one ÂPrivate ScreeningÂŽ inter-views with stars such as Tony Curtis, Esther Williams and Robert Mitchum „ as well as directors, including Sidney Lumet, Stanley Donen and Norman Jewison.He also co-hosted films considered ÂThe Essentials,ÂŽ most recently with actress Drew Barrymore. And he co-hosted the ÂGuest Pro-grammerÂŽ series, with guests such as Mia Farrow, Buck Henry and Hugh Hefner.Off the air, Osborne served as the main host of the TCM Classic Film Festival in Hollywood and shared his knowledge of film history with fellow passengers on the annual TCM Film Cruise.TCM stalwart Robert Osborne dies at 84Robert Osborne, host of Turner Classic Movies and the author of the of“ cial history of the Oscars, died in New York at age 84. [CAROLYN COLE/LOS ANGELES TIMES FILE] From wire reportsThe Transportation Security Administration (TSA) largely has been mum about where and how employees will be touching air travelers as part of the more invasive physical pat-down procedure it recently ordered.But the agency does expect some passengers to consider the examination unusual. In fact, the TSA decided to inform local police just in case anyone calls to report an ÂabnormalÂŽ federal frisking, according to a memo from an airport trade association obtained by Bloom-berg News. The physical search, for those selected to have one, is what the agency described as a more ÂcomprehensiveÂŽ screen-ing, replacing five separate kinds of pat-downs it previ-ously used.The TSA, in a statement, said a full pat-down Âdoes not involve any different areas of the body than were screened in the previous standard pat-down procedure.ÂŽ But the new guidelines posted on the TSA website are much more explicit about what passengers should expect: ÂA pat-down may include inspection of the head, neck, arms, torso, legs and feet. This includes head coverings and sensitive areas such as breasts, groin and the buttocks. You may be required to adjust clothing during the pat-down. Pat-downs require sufficient pressure to ensure detection.ÂŽThe decision to alert local and airport police raises a question of just how intimate the agen-cyÂs employees may get. On its website, the TSA says employ-ees Âuse the back of the hands for pat-downs over sensitive areas of the body. In limited cases, additional screening involving a sensitive area pat-down with the front of the hand may be needed to determine that a threat does not exist.ÂŽNow, security screeners will use the front of their hands on a passenger in a private screening area if one of the prior screening methods alerts officials to the potential presence of explosives, according to a Âsecurity noticeÂŽ Airports Council International-North America (ACI-NA) sent its U.S. members following a March 1 conference call with TSA officials.ÂDue to this change, TSA asked FSDs (field security directors) to contact airport law enforcement and brief them on the procedures in case they are notified that a passenger believes a (TSA employee) has subjected them to an abnormal screening practice,ÂŽ ACI wrote.There was some political pushback to reports of the change.Ron Paul, the Republican former congressman, tweeted: ÂTSA Launches ÂInvasive Pat-Downs With ÂMore Intimate Contact Than Before. Ž He republished an article on his website that referred to the new procedure as a Âuniversal method which would involve heavier groping.ÂŽThe TSA screens about 2 million people daily at U.S. airports. The agency said it doesnÂt track how many passengers are subject to pat-down searches. These searches typically occur when an imaging scanner detects one or more unknown objects on a person or if a traveler declines to walk through the machine and opts for the physical screening.TSA alerts police of new pat-down rulesleast 1,000 hours of an internship or related work experience, and Farr said they will try to keep many of those internship opportunities within Bay County.There is no cap on the number of students who will be admitted into the first cohort, according to Hanna, but the college is hoping to attract about 20 students to the program by the time it starts.Students interested in applying can email admis-sions@pc.fsu.edu or call 850-770-2160.

The discourse among driv-ers has been tame for several years, in part because wives and children have seemed to mellow the competitors. They live inches away from each other in the same motorhome lot every weekend, share the playground, the basketball court and the gym. ItÂs kind of hard to slide a side eye at someone you share a neighborhood with 38 weekends a year. So there was much delight Sunday night when DeLana Harvick, wife of known agitator Kevin Harvick, took a swipe on social media at Austin Dillon. Mrs. Harvick was upset that Dillon seemed to lose power in the waning laps at Atlanta Motor Speedway, where his decision to stay on the track caused a race-altering caution. Because Dillon didnÂt pull off, NASCAR brought out the yellow flag and the field headed to pit road for a final stop. Harvick, who had the win in control prior to Dil-lonÂs action was flagged for speeding on pit road and the penalty cost him a victory. Harvick had led 292 of the 325 laps „ the most ever for a driver at Atlanta who did not win the race „ and he finished ninth. His wife used an expletive on Twitter to express her displeasure with Dillon, and many fans rejoiced because it was the most exciting thing to come out of the second race of the season. Harvick didnÂt point the finger at Dillon. After all, itÂs hard to cast blame on Rivalries would drive NASCAR By Pat McCannThe News HeraldPANAMA CITY „ The gloves have been broken in.

ÂLose a couple early and you can be out of it.ÂŽÂBaseball is a marathon. It isnÂt meant to be a sprint.ÂŽWith that in mind, Gulf CoastÂs pitching staff will have some time to mend some tender arms in Austin Krzeminski and Alec Wisely. Krzeminski (3-0) hasnÂt allowed an earned run in three starts and probably will miss the series due to a sore right elbow.Wisely has experienced some soreness, but isnÂt sched-uled to pitch until the second game of the doubleheader on Saturday. Dylan Cyphert will start today, and Kandler said he doesnÂt have the Games 2 and 3 starters finalized.Whatever his decision, a pitching staff with a combined 2.39 ERA is providing him some options. The Commodores didnÂt hit extremely well, their .268 batting average low among conference teams, and with 13 home runs and 39 stolen bases they didnÂt over-power opponents or steal them blind.They just won, and consistently.ÂI think we played really good teams and found out when we do things right we can hang in there with any of them,ÂŽ Kandler said. ÂThe difference now is weÂre facing everybodyÂs best guys. ItÂs not that the talent level (by confer-ence) is that much different.

** B2 Tuesday, March 7, 2017 | The News Heraldsomeone when you were the one caught speeding. But that entire sequence and the volley from DeLana Harvick were the best parts of an otherwise uninspir-ing race. Perhaps something else would have changed the course of the event in the final minutes, but without that caution, Harvick drives to an easy win. Instead, Brad Keselowski proved his team can overcome adversity by coming back from a pit road error to take the checkered flag. Kyle Larson and Chase Elliott again showed they will contend for victories many times this season. Atlanta officials con-ceded that overwhelming driver pressure has them reconsidering a planned repave to the track, and Ford with its beefed up lineup has gone 2-for-2 to start the Cup season. Those are your highlights, folks. NASCAR no longer wants to see fisticuffs from its drivers, who also have sponsors that prefer they be family-friendly brand ambassadors. But every-thing is built around excitement, and NASCAR needs more of it, immediately. Larson losesChip Ganassi has taken the ÂI like winnersÂŽ slogan to new heights with his social media use of the tag when talking anything from politics to team performance. The owner must be getting a little anxious about star driver Kyle Larson. Larson finished second to Kes-elowski on Sunday after choosing to run the slower high line at Atlanta while leading the race in the final moments. Keselowski got by Larson on the bottom, and Larson has now been passed for the lead late in a race in the last three Cup races dating to the November season finale. The season-opener at Daytona wasnÂt his fault because Larson ran out of gas. But Larson could be accused of either overthink-ing or being too nice. Either way, heÂs got just one win in his Cup career and thatÂs not enough for the victory-charged Ganassi. Built Ford tough Ford wasnÂt kidding when it said it wanted improved perfor-mance from its Cup program. The manufacturer signed StewartHaas Racing for this season and parlayed it into a Daytona 500 victory with Kurt Busch. The race Sunday at Atlanta was going to SHR driver Kevin Harvick until his late speeding penalty, so the win went instead to Ford driver Brad Keselowski of Team Penske. Ford, which won a total of eight Cup races last season, has two wins in two races this year. ÂThey said they were going to bring on Stewart-Haas, and we said ÂThatÂs great, because we really get some teammates, weÂve got benchmark,ÂŽ said team owner Roger Penske. ÂFor Ford, itÂs terrific that we kick off the season certainly with KurtÂs win last week and the win this week for us.ÂŽ Viva Las VegasLeading into race day, much of the talk at Atlanta was about a potential second Cup race going to Las Vegas Motor Speedway. The Las Vegas Convention and Visitors AuthorityÂs board of directors scheduled a special meeting Wednesday to discuss a race sponsorship agreement with the track. The deal would be for $2.5 million a year for seven years with the option of extending the deal three years.Current Cup tracks are in the second year of five-year sanction-ing agreements with NASCAR, but Speedway Motorsports Inc. can cut any deal it wants to move a race. It could move an event from its current collection of tracks, or could try to deal with a property outside of its portfolio.SMI owns Las Vegas, Atlanta, Bristol, Charlotte, Kentucky, Texas, New Hampshire and Sonoma. International Speedway Corp. owns 12 tracks that host Cup races, while Dover, Pocono and Indianapolis are separately owned. Las Vegas has hosted one Cup race a year since 1998, but SMI CEO Marcus Smith didnÂt shy away from a potential addition. ÂWhen we see that the commu-nity is supportive of racing there, itÂs definitely encouraging to us,ÂŽ he said. That could be a shot at North Carolina leaders who have not given the Smith family the financial support it desires for its Charlotte properties, and the Smiths arenÂt thrilled with similar setbacks in New Hampshire. NASCAR has said only that the 2018 schedule is a work in progress. ÂWe are constantly working with promoters to discuss and develop NASCAR schedules,ÂŽ said Jim Cassidy, senior vice pres-ident of racing operations.guard Keyshawn Evans said of the Shockers. ÂBesides the two Wichita games, I canÂt remember the last time we lost a game. WeÂve only lost to them since I donÂt know when. That would probably be my argument.ÂŽThe Redbirds (27-6), who came into the title game on an eight-game winning streak and with an RPI in the 30s, have to hope the committee agrees with that assessment.The Big Ten domi-nated SundayÂs schedule and two bubble teams that needed wins got them.Iowa (18-13, 10-8) started the conference season 3-5 but turned things around, a trend that continued with a 90-79 victory over Penn State. It would do the Hawk-eyes well to definitely win one, maybe even a second game in the Big Ten Tournament.Michigan (20-11, 10-8) was in much better shape than Iowa, but the Wol-verines added a 93-57 mashing of Nebraska to close the season.Minnesota seemed likely to make the tour-nament field, but a win over Wisconsin would have been a great way to end the regular season. The Gophers fell 66-49.The Gophers rebounded from an eight-win season in 2015-16 to where they didnÂt have to worry about being on the bubble.ÂWe will get excited about where we sit right now because thatÂs in a great spot,ÂŽ coach Rich-ard Pitino said.The other Big Ten team that lost in a bubble-breaking situation was Northwestern, which fell 69-65 to No. 16 Purdue. The Wildcats (21-10, 10-8) have become a fan favorite as they wait for the call to their first ever NCAA Tournament.ÂWe donÂt take anything for granted, we donÂt feel our ticket is punched until we see it on Sunday,ÂŽ guard Bryant McIntosh said.Bubble talk can take a rest Monday when none of the power conferences are playing. Things will heat up again quickly today when the Atlantic Coast Conference Tour-nament gets underway.field when it needed to. Not many errors have extended innings into nightmares, and some fielding gems have been rally-stoppers. That has helped make up for not having any player get hot offensively and carry the team thus far.ÂTheoretically when you get in conference averages go down, but maybe some are heating up at the right time,ÂŽ Kandler said. ÂThe big boppers in the heart of the order, their numbers are not very impres-sive. WeÂve kind of done it by committee.ÂŽKandler said that one of them, sophomore right fielder Carnegy Calzado, likely will miss the opener with a hamstring injury. In addition to being one of three players with a team-high 13 RBIs thus far, Calzado is an outstanding defensive outfielder.Eli Taylor likely will replace Calzado in right, and Kandler is leaning toward starting Rashard Ranie in left field.The rest of the lineup should be set, and anchored by the sophomore left-hander Cyphert, 3-0, 2.89.ÂOne thing we know is that heÂs going to compete,ÂŽ Kan-dler said. ÂHeÂll go at them with everything he has.ÂThis is what (the players) came here to do is play in this league. Now they have their chance. We want them to take it as a challenge more than a problem.ÂŽA brief look at the other con-ference contenders:NORTHWEST FLORIDA STATE, 16-7 „ The Raid-ers statistically resemble Gulf Coast as they hit only .265 with 15 homers, but have a team ERA of 2.89. Their fielding percent-age is a strong .964.Hunter Oliver leads with four homers and 19 RBIs while batting .329. Mike Salvatore is at .316 with 21 runs and Jake Corso hits .304.More impressive is a starting rotation of Jarrett Montgom-ery (4-0, 1.56), Brayson Smith (2-1, 1.32) and Cameron Sand-ers (3-2, 1.82). Montgomery (38-7) and Smith (40-11) also have outstanding strikeout-to-walk ratios.CHIPOLA, 19-4 „ As usual, the Indians not only are notable with their size when they get off the bus, but in the numbers they can put up offensively.Chipola is hitting .316 as a team with 26 homers, Andrew Bechtold and Max Guzman tied for the state lead with six and 6-foot-6 first baseman Reynaldo Rivera not far behind with four and 17 RBIs. Bechtold has 25 RBIs and a .419 average and Guzman 23 and .333. Edmond Americaan is at .338, Jose Cabellero .333 and Rivera .303.Bechtold also has 13 stolen bases and Caballero 11, the Indians with 47 as a team.Riley Cabral is 4-0 with a 2.22 ERA and Bowden Francis (1.80) and Parker Warren (2.13) both are 4-1. Hard-throwing Junior Harding has struggled somewhat as 2-1, 4.64 in six starts.TALLAHASSEE, 15-11 „ The Eagles suffered through a rough stretch but seem to have righted the ship during the past two weeks. They hit .286 as a team paced by Cole Vann at .394, but what jumps out are 61 stolen bases with Jordan Curtis among state leaders with 20.TCC also has scored a lot of runs despite just 15 homers, but a 4.20 team ERA is abnormally high for the Eagles.Among pitchers with at least five starts Brooks Bucker is 1-2, 3.16, Nick Marchese 2-1, 2.70 and Nick Blasucci 0-1, 3.18.PENSACOLA STATE, 6-13. Conference opener, at Chipola March 14 „ Former Pensacola pitcher Bryan Lewallyn, 32, has taken over as head coach of the Pirates, who struggled through a lethargic pre-conference showing.PSC is led by sophomore Willie Carter who is hitting .355 with two home runs and 19 RBIs. All are team highs as the Pirates have just four homers as a team. They are hitting .284, however, with Onassis Matos is at .339, Wil-fredo Alvarez .344 and former Arnold Marlin Bobby Courson .300.Where the Pirates truly have struggled is in the field (.933) and on the mound (5.69 team ERA). Luke Dykes has been the most prolific starter at 3-2, 3.95 and Kaven Brown is 1-4, 4.88 despite 33 strikeouts and only four walks.

[JOHN AMIS/THE ASSOCIATED PRESS] The Associated PressAs dominant as the Washing-ton Capitals have been at home this season, they havenÂt been able to figure out the Dallas Stars for years.That puzzling trend continued Monday night as the Stars beat the NHL-leading Capitals 4-2 to extend their point streak in the series to 12 games. Dallas snapped WashingtonÂs home winning streak at 15 and point streak at 17, winning in D.C. for the sixth consecutive visit to move within seven points of a playoff spot. The Stars are 10-0-2 against the Capitals dating to their previous regulation loss to them on Nov. 30, 2006. This time they did it by chasing reigning Vezina Trophy-winning goaltender Braden Holtby with three goals on 11 shots and getting 42 saves from Kari Lehtonen on a night they were outshot 44-22. Nicklas Backstrom scored his 21st goal of the season and T.J. Oshie his 25th for Washington, which lost in regulation at home for the first time since Dec. 17. This was their first loss of any kind at home since Dec. 29.Holtby fell to 0-4-0 with a 4.79 goals-against average and .837 save percentage in five games against the Stars, the only team in the league he hasnÂt beaten. He entered the game first in the league with a 1.89 GAA and second with a .931 save percentage this season. Holtby said he didnÂt think a few losses to the same team represented a trend. He couldnÂt be blamed for the first two goals he gave up, namely the second that came after a turnover from Backstrom.Devin Shore, Radek Faksa and Jason Spezza „ whose shot beat Holtby clean „ got those goals to put Dallas up 3-0 early in the second period. That spelled the end of HoltbyÂs night as Philipp Grubauer relieved him and stopped all 10 shots he faced.SENATORS 4, BRUINS 2: Mike Hoffman had a power-play goal early in the third period and the Ottawa Senators defeated the Boston Bruins. Derick Brassard, Jean-Gabriel Pageau and Alex Burrows also scored as the Senators extended their winning streak to three games. Craig Anderson made 25 saves. Patrice Bergeron and Brad Marchand scored for the Bruins. Tuukka Rask made 25 saves. Ottawa has a four-point lead on the Bruins in the Atlantic Division. With just six remaining home games, the Senators gave the Canadian Tire Centre crowd something to remember in what could be a preview of a “ rst-round playoff matchup should the standings remain as they are. Ottawa took a 3-1 lead early in the third as Hoffman scored his 20th on the power play. It was OttawaÂs “ rst goal with the man advantage in three games. RANGERS 1, LIGHTNING 0, OT: Mika Zibanejad scored 3:56 into overtime, Antti Raanta made 38 saves, and the New York Rangers beat the Tampa Bay Lightning. Zibanejad beat Andrei Vasilevskiy during a breakaway. Raanta got his third shutout of the season. Vasilevskiy stopped 33 shots and Tampa Bay, 8-2-3 over the past 13 games, moved within two points of New York Islanders for the “ nal wild-card spot in the Eastern Conference. The Rangers failed to score on three power plays, and are 1 for 36 over the past 14 games.

** The Associated PressBoston Red Sox newcomer Chris Sale gave himself mixed reviews after his first spring training performance, an outing that ended a little ear-lier than originally planned.Acquired from the Chicago White Sox in December, the dominant lefty gave up two runs, one of them earned, in two innings Monday against Houston.ÂHappy? I donÂt know,ÂŽ he said. ÂI got some good work in. IÂm not a fan of sitting here and saying spring train-ing doesnÂt matter. You still want to get results.ÂŽBoston manager John Farrell had Sale set to go three innings. But after 37 pitches in two innings, Farrell decided the debut was over.ÂI understand why, I mean I racked up a pretty good amount of pitches, which is another thing IÂd like to get down,ÂŽ Sale said.The scoreboard radar gun showed SaleÂs fastball hitting 97 mph a couple times during the first inning. He struck out two.ÂI was a little surprised to see the velocity he had in his first outing,ÂŽ Farrell said. ÂIn a way you kind of think itÂs a high number for this early in camp, but you canÂt tell a strong competitor to back off.ÂŽThe Red Sox traded three minor leaguers and highly touted Yoan Moncada to the White Sox for Sale, a five-time All-Star and the 2015 AL strikeout king.SaleÂs addition took on even more importance earlier this spring when lefty ace David Price began experiencing elbow soreness. PriceÂs status for the start of the season remains uncertain.ÂI think every player we have has got a certain amount of scrutiny just because itÂs Boston,ÂŽ Farrell said.

[JOHN BAZEMORE/ASSOCIATED PRESS] By Schuyler DixonThe Associated PressDALLAS „ Dirk Now-itzki chuckled at the memory of he and Steve Nash trying to sneak in a few shots between YMCA games inside the closest thing the Dallas Mavericks had to a practice facility nearly 20 years ago.He also recalled a trying rookie season with the Mavericks that was compressed by a lockout, playing on three consec-utive nights as a teenager and sometimes sitting out the entire game even when healthy for one of the worst franchises in pro sports.The 38-year-old German can smile about it all now because he sits on the cusp of an exclusive club needing 20 points today against the Los Angeles Lakers to join four Hall of Famers and a future one, Kobe Bryant, as the only NBA players with 30,000 points. Julius Erving reached that milestone with his ABA career included, while Nowitzki will be the first international player in the group.ÂThere was some doubt creeping in,ÂŽ said the bearded father of three, recalling the baby-faced version with floppy bangs.

I am also 62 years young. My problem is IÂm borderline obese, have gray hair, a few wrinkles and some dental problems. ItÂs the reason I donÂt post photos of myself. Someday, he may want to meet face-to-face, and I am more petrified than 2,000-year-old wood! He sounds and speaks so well „ soft and gentle. My heart has butterfly-wing feelings, not the head-over-heels emotions I had when I first met my late husband. Should I keep texting this gentleman, or just fade away from him? „ IS BEAUTY MORE THAN SKIN DEEP?DEAR SKIN DEEP: Keep texting him, of course! Nothing ventured, nothing gained, and remember, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. That said, if your weight and dental problems are affecting your self-esteem, perhaps itÂs time you dealt with them rather than use them as an excuse to cut and run.DEAR ABBY: I have been in a relationship with a wonderful man for the last year and a half. He is good to me and good to my 11-year-old daughter. Recently, a man I have known for 40 years „ but have been in and out of touch with „ appeared back in my life. He was my first kiss at 6, and there were many unresolved feelings that I felt needed exploring. My daughter caught on and told me if I gave up my current relationship she would never forgive me, so I ended the relationship with my old friend, which left him with bitter feelings. Did I do the right thing? „ BITTER FEELINGSDEAR BITTER: Because you felt it was appropriate to allow an 11-year-old to dictate your future, then yes, I suppose you did the right thing. In any case, itÂs a little late to second guess yourself now. Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Contact Dear Abby at www.DearAbby. com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Your loved ones who are similarly happy at work will understand. The others, not so much! TAURUS (April 20-May 20) „ If you were to summon all your powers of creativity (and they are mighty strong today, to be sure) to redesign yourself, who would the new you be? DonÂt let the ones who knew you before hold you back. TheyÂll adjust. GEMINI (May 21-June 21) „ Progress and struggle go together. Some would argue that they must „ that there is no progress without struggle. Then again, an inspiring in” uence can make the struggle seem mild, even satisfying! CANCER (June 22-July 22) „ The love experts have spoken: DonÂt fall in love with someone who ” irts with everyone. If you disregard this advice (or have received it too late), then at least take comfort in the fact that whatever happens next, itÂs nothing personal. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) „ Your life will be better through the magic of delegation. But this only works if you do it the right way: Joyfully hand over the task; let go; walk away; donÂt look back. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) „ When fantasy relationships become reality, illusions soon dissolve. The bubble of specialness around the situation may pop. And if you still like each other after that, this relationship has real potential. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) „ When you can be your less-than-ideal self with someone, it means you are closer with that person than you are with the people you feel the need to constantly impress. The question today is: How close do you really want to be? SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21) „ Containing passionate feelings is, as a rule, hard for humans. YouÂre the exception to this rule. You can stay cool even when thereÂs a volcano going off in your emotional body. ItÂs an amazing trick youÂll practice today. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) „ You wonder if you may have under-loved someone who deserved a better quality of attention from you. You may not get the chance to rectify this with the same person, but youÂll pay it forward. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) „ Maybe there really is a time for everything, and yet you can count on the fact that itÂs seldom a (SET ITAL) convenient (END ITAL) time or one thatÂs under your control „ another argument for doing instead of waiting. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) „ Being the different one in the group isnÂt bad, but it does mean youÂll have to acquire more credibility and skills than the others. It wonÂt be hard. The hardest part is accepting the injustice. Once you do, the rest is cake. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) „ Since most of the relationships in your life are involuntary (family, neighbors, co-workers, etc.), it makes sense for you to be very choosy about the ones that are voluntary (friends and more). Exercise your right to be picky.
